How To Aim a Paintball Gun

As
a regular Paintball player, it’s been my dream to be a precise
shooter. Though 100% accuracy is quite impossible! But anything above
80% on target shots is enough to consider you as a sharpshooter.
Furthermore, it’ll increase the chances of winning for your team as
well.

On
the other hand, the more precisely you shoot the more PaintBall you
save. Also, it’ll save your reloading time. Not only that typically
you need to pay for each set of PaintBalls you’ve been used during
the game. So, using fewer PaintBalls can save you some money too. As
a result, you can enjoy more PaintBall sessions by the savings.

Here,
following are the quick tips to improve your accuracy. By practicing
according to these tips in no time you can save a lot of money and
accuracy too. On the same note, sometimes people might hire you in
different challenges which can be a source of your passive income.
Practice makes perfect indeed a universal truth. So, by following my
tips practice more to win PaintBall challenges for you and the team.

Doing
more Practice

As
we mentioned earlier in the introduction there are no options to
improve your skills and accuracy without dedication and practice. If
you’ve own PaintBall marker and a set of equipment than find a safe
place to practice on a regular basis. Either you can find a nearby
shooting range for practicing accuracy and skills.

The
first start with basics set the target in an average distance and
practice until you achieve satisfactory accuracy.

After
practicing for a few days depending on your level of accuracy try
different angles and ranges to master on shooting steady targets.

By
mastering on the steady targets try your skills on moving targets.
Note if you assess regularly you can see improving results in no
time. But practicing regularly is the key and show no compromise to
it for keeping the same form.

Finding
the best Paintball Gun

The
right equipment is important as your skills. For example, in a
professional baseball match, the bats are being used are very costly.
Even the star players design own bats by spending thousands of bucks.
Where in a basic sports shop you’ll get baseball bat by
spending twenty or fewer bucks. Why the professional bats are
expensive?

The
answer is they’re built with more accuracy in terms weight, grip,
and stroke. Definitely, a professional bat will help a player to
perform more precisely. Likewise in PaintBall the more a manufacturer
invest in the quality regarding range, accuracy, shooting rate, and
grip etc. the better PaintBall marker will perform. So, buying or
choosing a quality gun can be a key for accuracy.

Generally,
the accuracy depends on the size and radius of Barrels. In a word,
the markers with longer and slimmer barrels are supposed to be more
accurate than other PaintBall Guns.

Next
is to consider is the weight of the gun. Guns with a lot of
accessories can significantly increase the weight and lose the
portability. In such case, in the battlefield, it is good to carry
lighter guns for moving at a great pace by holding the gun. Must
select your marker depending on your carrying ability which might
vary for different persons. As a result, you can easily hold the gun
in the right posture which ensures more accuracy.

I
suggest the Tippman and Valken which are great in terms of their
accuracy. But considering the recoiling capacity, Tippmann PaintBall
marker is considered as a great option. As recoiling can considerably
improve your accuracy while firing multiple shots.

Testing
the Paintball Marker

Start
your every PaintBall session by testing the Marker. The experts
always prefer to test the gun for adjustment in aim whole which is
good practice for accuracy in the game. Doing the same in a running
session will help opponents to track you and you’ll also so
valuable ammunition.

First,
ensure that the Marker is clean. Because the dirt inside the barrel
can affect the accuracy by changing the direction and PaintBall
speed to a great extent.

Test
by firing Markers blank is also considered as a good technique
before moving into the battlefield. Even pick a target and practice
few test fires to understand the ability and accuracy of the gun.

Later
on, check the target for understanding accuracy. If you’re not
hitting precisely on the target adjust your aiming hole for more
accuracy. Keep testing until you hit the bull’s eye.

Aligning
Marker

Lining
up the Marker with the eyes is very important and recommended by
PaintBall experts.

Because
the more the gun is centered along with the body the more you can
judge the angles which will definitely increase your shooting
accuracy.

Secondly,
check whether your accessories are blocking your view or not. So
tilt in a lower extent for a better view of the target. As the
better view is important for accuracy.

By
simply making small changes in alignment you can improve your
accuracy. Remember more recoiling sometimes causes self-hitting.
Though I am sure you’re wearing a mask. But still, you don’t want
to take shots in your own face.

Hold
on the excitement

Holding
calm is always make a great shooter. Following is the expert tips:

Don’t
get excited before you shoot. Simply show more focus for accuracy.
Also in sudden attack keep your cool for the most accurate shot.

On
the other hand, making noise by shooting unnecessarily will help
your opponents to relocate your current position. Result in losing
your life in the game.

Remember
to spend a few more seconds for shooting precisely. Have your
patience and focus. Also overthinking can be dangerous too. So take a
decent time for accurate shots. You might be surprised at the results
and find that keeping calm is a game changer.

Right
posture

Stance
and posture are also very important. Also considered as basic of any
sport.

Because
postures play an important role to shoot accurately while moving at
a decent pace.

Suddenly
finding yourself in an awkward position will make the shooting more
difficult due to the awkward angle and position.

So
centering the gun with the body, use your toes and chest towards the
target will also increase your accuracy.

Use
movement as an advantage

PaintBall
players keep changing their positions to shot and better view on
target. So, excepting still targets is foolishness.

To
overcome the issue with moving targets one common technique is used
that is good judgment on speed and distance. The more accurate you
can judge in less time will increase your accuracy on shooting by
keeping your gun point ahead of the opponents.

So
the assumption is the key to the moving targets. Pulling trigger in
the right moment at the right time will make you a sharpshooter.

As
we can see most the tips are directly related to the practice. So use
your sense, humor, focus, and skills together for better accuracy as
a shooter. Furthermore, win the games for yourself and so for the
team.
